In the past we’ve written articles on Datepad about taking a good picture. At the end of the day standing out on a dating site with millions of members isn’t easy and having a lousy picture only makes things worse. In these articles we’ve made mention of the fact that many of us have decided to take a picture of ourselves rather than having a friend do so. Why? Maybe embarrassed to say where the picture is going to be posted or maybe it’s all about convenience.

Well today there is a camera that could be designed specifically for this crowd.

The Samsung ST500 has a screen not only on the back of the camera which is traditional, they have also placed one on the front of the camera so you can see what you are shooting (which is most likely you!).

For more info Techcrunch has done a nice little writeup about this new product.

Disclaimer: Most of us have at least one friend that annoyingly takes photos everywhere you go.  While annoying, this same person is probably quite good at taking a great photo of you.  Save the money on the camera and get them to do the hard work. Maybe they even know how to work Photoshop?
